Colombia Tours & Trips

The best Colombia tour packages

Best places to start your Colombia tour

Colombia's diverse experiences really shine from ancient ruins to modern city life. Our travelers consistently tell us the Lost City Trek becomes their favorite memory - it's a genuine adventure where you'll push through dense jungle for several days to reach fascinating pre-Colombian ruins. The coffee region opens up Colombia's famous bean export story, with traditional haciendas showing you exactly how coffee goes from plant to your morning cup. The Cocora Valley offers remarkable hikes among the tallest palm trees you'll find anywhere in the world, while over in Medellín, the Comuna 13 tour reveals the city's artistic revival through its street art and local stories. Cartagena mixes colonial architecture with Caribbean flair - you can walk the historic walls in the morning and boat out to the clear waters of the Rosario Islands by afternoon. For the best weather, come between December and March or July and August when conditions really work for both cultural visits and outdoor activities. Our guests particularly love connecting with locals in the smaller towns and joining in the festivals that pop up throughout the year.

Best time to visit Colombia

  • Spring 2025

    Colombia's spring tours blend cultural encounters with active exploration in compelling ways. Our travelers start their journey in Medellín with local guides leading them through the transformed Comuna 13, before moving on to conquer El Peñol's 650 steps in Guatapé. Coffee region visits peak during this season, where guests work alongside farmers, discover traditional roasting techniques, and wander beneath soaring wax palms in the Cocora Valley. Many of our coastal routes combine the colonial streets of Cartagena, visits to indigenous communities near Tayrona National Park and also refreshing swims in Minca's hidden waterfalls. The Lost City treks see high demand in spring, when weather patterns create perfect conditions for hiking the Sierra Nevada mountain trails. Our customers consistently tell us how much they value the mix of active challenges like river tubing, waterfall exploration, coffee farm visits and also traditional craft demonstrations in local villages. These spring itineraries particularly appeal to those seeking physical challenges balanced with genuine cultural connections.

  • Summer 2025

    Colombian summer tours showcase distinct experiences across the country's diverse regions, with several standout routes worth noting. Multi-day journeys begin in Cartagena's colonial quarter, heading north to secluded beaches and local communities in Tayrona National Park, where travelers split time between swimming in hidden coves and absorbing indigenous culture. The coffee region maintains pleasant temperatures, perfect for wandering beneath towering wax palms and joining family farms to learn traditional roasting methods. Adventure seekers take on the Lost City trek - a demanding 4-day expedition through jungle paths and streams that leads to ancient terraces, while providing genuine interactions with Kogi villages along the way. Our comprehensive 9-day tours combine guided explorations of Bogota's Gold Museum and laid-back walks through Medellin's evolving neighborhoods. These summer itineraries stand out for balancing active exploration with cooling breaks, from dips in jungle waters during the Lost City hike to afternoon snorkeling excursions near the Rosario Islands after cultural visits.

  • Fall / Autumn 2025

    Colombia's autumn tours deliver an excellent blend of comfortable temperatures and cultural experiences, starting with guided walks through Bogotá's historic streets. Our coffee region routes let you stay in working haciendas, learn traditional roasting techniques and join the seasonal harvest activities. The weather makes exploring especially pleasant, with travelers finding the Cocora Valley hikes among towering wax palms more enjoyable in the mild conditions. Over on the Caribbean coast, where crowds have thinned out nicely, you'll discover Cartagena's colonial treasures and meet indigenous communities near Tayrona National Park, all while enjoying ideal beach weather. A popular 7-destination itinerary earns high marks from our guests, who appreciate its well-planned progression through coffee estates, mountain paths and coastal villages. For those seeking more depth, our 12-day program combines the Lost City trek with visits to colonial sites during less humid conditions. What makes autumn special is how our guides weave local harvest festivals and seasonal traditions into each journey, particularly at the coffee estates, where you can join in picking and processing beans using time-honored methods.
